How many gun owners do we have in this community? I’m working with a Glock 19 gen 5, next weapons I want are a .22 survival rifle and some auto rifle, submachine gun or assault rifle. Opinions? What’re y’all’s arsenals looking like?

      Thats part of the reason I’m looking for that .22, it’ll be useful for small game if ever the necessity comes up, but also buying .22 is much less detrimental to my pockets than other ammunitions

      I got an M&P AR as well. Wanted the Ruger 556 but at the time I was in the market getting ahold of a Ruger anything was next to impossible. I got a shit load of ammo for it but the one range that’s close to me is always full of chuds or cops or both. Hell certain days of the week the whole thing is off limits to anyone that’s not a fucking cop.

      I can’t remember where I ordered the ammo from. Some website that a buddy of mine showed me. Had good prices and order limits so their stock didn’t get demolished with all the doomsday prepper asshats that bought up all the ammo when COVID started.

      Edit: This the site. www.sgammo.com

        Is that the range in Vancouver, WA by any chance? Although I’m sure that description fits a lot of ranges.

        Have you looked for a local SRA chapter? Shooting with comrades always feels better.

          Not even close LMAO. Where I’m at is very rural and very right wing. I do not have anything close to a local SRA chapter. Closes one is something like 5 miles away. lol

        Nice, thx!

        Ya its the same at my local ranges as well… I moved to a new city and unfortunately the only places to shoot are city ranges and members-only gun clubs… no public areas whatsoever.

          Sad thing is, mine is a public range in a forestry, that you now need to buy a membership for. Which I don’t mind but you have to go in person and the place to buy the membership is only open Tuesday to Thursday from like 10-2. Lmao. So it’s basically just for cops and their friends now. Fucking sucks.

    I’ve got a Howa 1500 in .308 and a Savage Mk II .22LR.

    I used to have a Rossi Circuit Judge .410/.45LC and a Walther PPK/S in .380ACP but sold them because I’m moving to New York.

    I’d like to get an AR or AK, but New York. If I get one I could get a mag lock and keep the features, which seems the better option, since if SHTF you can easily make the mags detachable again.

    Also, c/firearms could use some more love

    Too young to own anything other than small calibre hunting rifles or a shotgun, but I do have a .22 cal air rifle. When I get the permit and such, I would do anything to get my hands of an as-val/VSS.

      State I live in has near 0 gun laws, permits are a “common courtesy”, only good thing about libertarian New England

    AK, Mosin, 702 pinkster, tt13 9mm Norinco Tokarev clone, and a shotgun. Soon to have a czp10c for concealed carry. So glad there are more armed commies.

    I want a Ruger 10-22 takedown so bad. I have wanted one for a while but getting one with the barrel and stock I want is nearly impossible. I looks for a few months and then give up and forget for a while. Then rinse and repeat. I’m sure I could track one down if I really wanted too but I’m not THAT desperate for one. Just would be a nice addition. I’ll just stick to my shotty and my AR. I got a 22 that is less than reliable. Is also a youth rifle and what I learned to shoot with. It’s a bit small on me now. lol

      I have a takedown, it’s kind of crappy, the rail nuts constantly back out and a pin at the end of the receiver broke in half. I’d also suggest a Kel-tech sub2000. Folds in half and in 9mm takes those 33 round glock mags. It’s build quality isn’t any better, made of the shittiest plastic known to man.

        A 9mm carbine isn’t a bad idea either now that you mention it. Even from the picks it looks like the shittiest plastic possible. lol. I’ll keep that in mind for the takedown.
